MWW type titanosilicate, Ti-MWW, has been synthesized by the dry-gel conversion (DGC) method, and its physicochemical properties and catalytic performance in the liquid-phase epoxidation of alkene have been compared with that of hydrothermally synthesized (HTS) Ti-MWW. The roles in the crystallization of silica source, alkali cation, cyclic amine as a structure-directing agent (SDA), and boric acid structure-supporting agent have been investigated. The crystallization of Ti-MWW did not occur for the dry gels free of boric acid, but was feasible at a Si/B molar ratio as high as 12 in marked contrast to the ratio of 0.75 required in the hydrothermal synthesis. The sodium as a mineralization agent was not necessary and on the contrary inhibited the crystallization particularly at a high content. The seeding technique using deboronatedMWWeffectively accelerated the crystallization speed and reduced the amount of boric acid required. As-synthesized Ti-MWW-DGC lamellar precursors contained both tetrahedral and octahedral species but the latter was selectively removed by acid treatment. Ti-MWW-DGC catalysts showed lower intrinsic activity than Ti-MWW-HTS in the epoxidation of hex-1-ene with hydrogen peroxide probably because the crystal size of the former was 10-20 times as large as that of the latter and then imposed significant diffusion problems for both the substrates and the products.
